Arnold Schwarzenegger’s slow walk and aged appearance recently sparked concern among fans, among a variety of other responses.
The 77-year-old was seen earlier this month walking in New York City while surrounded by bodyguards.
Schwarzenegger sported a Christmas sweater, silvery hair and a beard as he made his way into his trailer.
“DEVELOPING: Arnold Schwarzenegger fans are saying that the actor has ‘aged 200 years in 2 months’ after being spotted in New York surrounded by five bodyguards,” X user Dom Lucre wrote.
